Since Erin and I got way off topic in the Im not your inspiration thankyouverymuch strand. I figured I move over.
The biggest reason why I learned to crochet is so I can repair my grandmother final afghan. And hopefully make another one like it. Since I already know once it's repaired it'll be used a few times and then stored safely away.
My grandmother's probably upset that I would even dream to store it, ever the practical lady, but I'd like one of my grand babies to enjoy it and fear it's a bit to delicate a construction to hand down without attempts at preservation.
To whit I can already hear her telling me beauty with purpose is never long lived so enjoy it and bury it with pride.
Ah grandmothers morbid modern day confusiouses
